Erasmus University

Problem

The content management system that ran the old website was obsolete, and so the content had to be migrated to a more secure environment (based on Drupal).

Solution

Mapping of the structure and content types from the source system (TYP03) to Drupal, followed by the automatic migration of web pages and media files while retaining links and relationships.

Result

Technical realisation of new website based on Drupal and content migrated within the deadline.

Automated migration from TYPO3 to Drupal saves Erasmus University a lot of time and money

In April 2017, Erasmus University Rotterdam kicked off a project with the ambitious goal of migrating content from the old website to a new website in Drupal. “The software that supported our site, TYPO3, had reached the limits of its capability,” explains Hans Pleysier, the project manager. “We had to choose between an upgrade and an entirely new platform. We opted for the latter. The project had to be fast-tracked because of security issues which meant we had until December to complete it. That was as little as nine months.”

Xillio has been able to realize this TYPO3 migration to Drupal in record time. Curious about the full case? Fill out the form and receive the case immediately!
